ComradeAdoratsky:

Iam enclosing what you have
requested.[1]I am writing
to
Kamenev.[2]I am ill and will probably be unable to see
you or help with Marx’s letters. Kamenev will help you;
so you will have someone to consult with. Concentrate on
the letters: this is an importantinternationalundertaking.
Select themost importantones. The notes should be brief,
clear and precise (+ a comparison of Marx’s comments
with those ofsuch-and-such“authoritative” bourgeoisreactionaryscientists).

Regards!Yours,Lenin
